EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
COMPANY HISTORY
With a common keenness for sustainability and helping mend the environment
from relentless harmful human activities in their own little way, Dexter Digal, Jay Lord
Camarillo, and Tricia May Ibañez, all are business graduates, decided to form a joint
venture in 2019, as a side hustle. They decided to come up with something eco-friendly
and something they could incorporate their common denominator which is being gym
goers and coffee lovers. So, a bamboo tumbler was decided upon then. Bamboo for
them was an inevitably good idea as it is quite a helpful way to scale down on the use
of plastics. As a twist, they made it a personalized offer (which customers can put any
logo, message, name, object of their choice on the bottle and on their free regular and
All three individually invested their own money into this new business empire.
In the summer of 2019, the business was finally put up in Roxas Boulevard Davao City
where they used as main office and for walk-in orders. The bamboo tumblers together
with the free bamboo straws are sourced from a trustable supplier and the business
will personalize the item through laser engraving. They started out receiving orders
solely from Davaoeños on their Facebook and Instagram page; and on-site; thus, they
began immediately both online and traditional only for Davao City.
When pandemic stepped foot in 2020, they lifted their on-site accommodation.
Consequently, orders and services were made online. Under the unfortunate
circumstances, the business finally opted to jump on shopping apps (Shopee and
Lazada) which were at its peak at that time. To withstand and still thrive during the
uncertain time, venturing out into the shopping apps was conducive to it. So, the
business since then started catering nationwide; anyone in the Philippines can now
order from Bamblr through Shopee and Lazada. The situation dragged out until March
2022. They finally came back to their long-vacated on-site accommodation that month.
As of today, the company are selling and accepting orders both on shopping
apps and on-site. At last, the three investors have just proclaimed to add products to

showed that 50% of consumers desired personalized products for some product
company aims at personalizing their tumblers. Meanwhile, Bamblr, derives from the
word “bamboo” —a type of grass with a hard, woody, hollow stem and is the main
staple we incorporated into the product, and “tumbler” —a drink-ware usually made
of glass or stainless steel that can work for hot or cold drinks. Thus, “Bam” comes from
the word Bamboo and “blr”, from tumbler; the company decided to edit out the word
“e” from the letters “bler” for aesthetic purposes. In spite the company’s name pertains
to a tumbler, they are still planning to roll out other types of products that are still
bamboo-based in the future. Thus, they are putting the emphasis that their tumbler is

minimalism.

bamboo tumbler is discovered because of his visit to Misamis Occidental in early 2018.

is the huge number of plastics thrown on the island. The BAMBOO COMPANY creates

pesos. Today, the company is continuing its operation and still waiting for investors for
